Nah. They don’t know Google translate. Or Google, for that matter. They know what they are supposed to know.
Of course some people know better, and those are the ones who will eventually get around the block - finding and installing a VPN is not rocket science, not even here. But if you keep 98% of the population contained, the rest won’t reach critical mass.
It was a “what about” analogy. It compares a app that steals data without the users consent and the other one is the keyboard app.
Both seem to be wanted by consumers despite the steeling parts.
Yeah but a social media platform has completely different qualities. Therefore the reasons for people how and why they use them will be completely different. Also the keyboard app is forced on the phones by the state while the use of social media platforms is optional. Just too many different factors at play here imo.
Why? Useful for safety and security of the society?
Edit: Why downvotes? I’m trying to put myself in their shoes, it’s not how I view it lol
Comes with a built in translator and spell checker, and since access to Google translate is blocked, that’s often the only alternative.
Ah ok makes sense
Lol “I love this tool that they made, because they blocked me from Google translate.”
